About

Keep Attacking is a 7yo bay gelding from Australia trained by Alan Mathews in Muchea. He is by Snippetson out of Black Queen and has accumulated seven wins so far. On 2 Aug 2025 at Pinjarra Scarpside he secured his biggest triumph, taking the $80,000 Benchmark 72+ Handicap. The horse has been a steady money‑maker for punters; backing him throughout his career would have delivered a 161% return on investment.
